Abstract: A nuclear reactor (10), in particular a liquid metal-cooled reactor or a molten salt reactor, comprises a reactor vessel (12) and an inner structure (14) arranged therein, the reactor vessel (12) being at least partially filled with a primary coolant, the inner structure (14) having an up-flow coolant passage (20) therethrough and being dimensioned and arranged so as to provide a down-flow coolant passage (16) between the reactor vessel (12) and the inner structure (14). The nuclear reactor (10) further comprises a core (22) of nuclear fuel being arranged in a lower part of the reactor vessel (12) underneath the inner structure (14). The nuclear reactor (10) also comprises at least one heat exchanger (24) for transferring heat from the primary coolant to a secondary coolant, wherein the secondary coolant preferably has a lower density and a higher pressure than the primary coolant. Upon operation of the nuclear reactor (10), the primary coolant moves upwards through the up-flow coolant passage (20) to an upper part of the reactor vessel (12) and then downwards through the down-flow coolant passage (16) back to the lower part of the reactor vessel (12). According to an important aspect of the invention, the at least one heat exchanger (24) is arranged in the up-flow coolant passage (20).

Title: System and method for retrieving related certificates
Inventor: BROWN MICHAEL S
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 2004-09-01
Abstract: A system and method for searching and retrieving certificates, which may be used in the processing of encoded messages. In one embodiment, a certificate synchronization application is programmed to perform certificate searches by querying one or more certificate servers for all certificate authority (CA) certificates and cross-certificates on the certificate servers. In another embodiment, all certificates related to an identified certificate are retrieved from the certificate servers automatically by the certificate synchronization application, where the related certificates comprise at least one of one or more CA certificates and one or more cross-certificates. Embodiments of the invention facilitate at least partial automation of the downloading and establishment of certificate chains, thereby minimizing the need for users to manually search for individual certificates.

Abstract: In a dispersion compensation element 10X, a plurality
of regions (I) and (II) mutually different in radius and
interval of holes 24 are set, and voltages applied at electrodes
30A and 30B are controlled in respective regions (I) and (II)
to make variable the sign and the absolute value of chromatic
dispersion compensation. In a dispersion compensation system
formed by using the dispersion compensation element 10X, an
optical pulse picked up from an optical fiber transmission
line is monitored, and the amount of voltage applied at the
dispersion compensation element 10X is controlled based on
its chromatic dispersion information to perform dispersion
compensation of the optical pulse propagated through the
optical fiber transmission line. Alternatively, dispersion
compensation can be performed by varying the carrier density
of the waveguide by applying a voltage to change the refractive
index of the waveguide.
